We splurged and docked in the Komolac marina for one night so that we would not have to worry about the boat while we enjoyed Dubrovnik. We actually arrived at the marina very early in the morning, allowing us the full day in the city and a relaxed departure the next day before 2pm.

We caught a bus right outside the marina which cost Kn10 ($2) per person, each way.

Walking the ramparts around the city is a must. It cost Kn50 ($10) per person takes about 1-2 hours, and gives you a fabulous overview of the city.Howard [ Just Imagine ] 04-Oct-2009

Fascinating defensive walls built in 1333 run 5.5 Km across the isthmus to Mali Ston to protect the valuable salt pans and to isolate and defend the Pelesac Peninsula. At that time it was the longest fortification in Europe and second only to the great wall of China.

During French rule in the early 1800s they attempted to dig a canal across the isthmus.

The dusty old town of Ston does have it's charm and is steeped in history.

Good all-round shelter.

Spring water from the 1571 drinking fountain.
Supermarket and open market.
